Hi guys,

I was thinking about joining aviation. Right now I am a civilian and wanted to get some info about flying. I have some college done but I want to become a WO and fly apaches.

Is there still a big need for pilots?

How many people don't make it into the program?

How long is the flight training?

What are some bases for Apaches?

Any tips for the ASVAB and AFAST?

If I go through the process and don't make it do I have to go into the army or can I still be a civilian and try again later?

Anything I should know about and get prepared for?

Any helpful advice?

Any idea on how many apaches are deployed into Iraq/Afghanistan?


If you can answer any of these questions I would love to know. I am still finding out more info and would like to get it without the help of a recruiter (didn't want to get it from someone trying to fill a quota...sorry any recruiters out there). Thanks for the helps guys.
